“If I’m not living my life to the fullest and just trying to be positive and enjoy it and leave things better than they found it, then it’s kind of useless.”

Ayo Edebiri in conversation with Leah Faye Cooper, photography by Renell Medrano Vanity Fair, June 2024

Lewis' first time meeting Anna Wintour, as shared by Leah Faye Cooper:

"He got to the top of the stairs and was so nervous, and was like, "I need to kiss her hand." He's like "Mind you, I literally have never kissed anyone's hand in my life, and I don't know what came over me."

"And so, he pulls her hand, and she politely.. pulling it back. But he succeeded in kissing her hand and then he was mortified, and continued to be mortified, and continued to literally hide from her whenever he would see her moving forward."

"Until years later, he was at Wimbledon and he realised they were sitting next to each other and he was like "Oh gosh, oh gosh, oh gosh."

They sat next to each other and had a fantastic time, and now they're great friends."

cig talk (i dont smoke just having deep thoughts)

It’s heartbreaking to think about how many lives I’ve been shattered by the orders, cruel traditions, most likely far from then it has ever been written about imagine a mother being torn from our child’s lives life simply because she wanted to shield him from the horrors of swords, blood and death, and provide him a normal childhood and a normal life

anna was punished for seeing her son as something beyond more than arthur’s scion, a meer tool for their legacy.

anna is probably living her best life right now blissfully unaware that out there somewhere exists something or someone that could make her leave it all behind without a second thought the kind of love she once risked her life for. nick saw her once after they took her, immediately ran to hug her and she had no clue who he was. his own mother saw him as a stranger.

bonnie (evan’s mom) was completely overwhelmed by grief, unable to hold back her tears as the weight of her son’s still missing body crushed her during the burial. her sobs tearing her lungs, leaving them raw and burning. yet all they did was not answer truthfully and dismiss her state not even having the morality or empathy to see her as what she was. a grieving mother who’s son had died and his body lost. bonnie deserved to know the truth no matter how horrifying it is, only that way her heart can rest

natasia thrown into a horrible prison cell, and stripped away from her titles all because of a reckless mistake of a horrible act by an ignorant man-child who uses his power and privilege as in his identity as a shield. she gave birth to a baby boy selwyn who was probably the best thing had ever happened to her yet not even that could last. unknown to her— she’s about to see her baby boy for the first time in so long, having the horrible same fate as her.

and faye, truly tragic for her to be gone knowing her last interaction with her daughter was an argument. i hope bree gets justice for her and wipes out the entire order i cannot stand such morally disgusting people holding that much power.

lastly the women scions who were killed so the inheritance moves on to the son simply because being a woman was wrong for them.

the order has done more damage than good for those who do not wield the same power such as m*rtin davis.

Adolescence is British Drama at its best.

Yes- this mini series was a bit difficult to watch in certain places... but the story was gripping and the performances were top notch.

Adolescence (2025, UK)

Director: Philip Barantini

Creators and Writers: Jack Thorne & Stephen Graham

Mini-review:

Basically everyone has been talking about this miniseries lately, so I decided to give it a chance. And I can understand why it has become such a hit. When done well, the one-shot format can be incredibly gripping, and Philip Barantini has obviously mastered the technique; when I looked him up and saw he was the filmmaker behind Boiling Point, everything made so much sense. His team pulled off a seriously impressive technical achievement. On top of that, the script dives deep into the radicalization of young boys the world has been experiencing lately. The writers knew how to approach this timely topic with due sensitivity. But really, it probably wouldn't work as well without the excellent cast. Owen Cooper gives a particularly impactful performance, which is crazy considering this is his acting debut. I really do think Adolescence won't leave anybody indifferent.

Snippet Sunday 22/9

I'm takin' a break from the chores of it all to share you a thing :3

from birthday present #2, I present; name games with the Fair Folk!

~~~

Calico tilts his head, thinking. "I don't know. It might not take."

"I'll give it a shot." Briar swivels on their heel to face Calico amongst the graves. "How do we do this?"

Calico hesitates. "Are you sure?" The hunger of it all makes him hesitate, makes him slip and if he had been any younger - if he had known them any less-

"Yes."

He pushes his aviators onto his head and blinks as his eyes kaleidoscope with unbidden glamour.

briar lets out a quiet gasp, their face softening.

"Make your deal, Mortal." The compulsion lies thick on Calico's tongue. A strain to call it up, a strain to keep it in check.

"A name for a name, Faye," Briar says, offering their hand. "I'll give you mine in exchange for the use-name of your cousin." They sound a little dazed, and Calico hopes they aren't about to give him their actual name. "I accept, Mortal. Give me the name your parents gave you." He takes Briar's hand.

Clouds scud across the sky and the sun lights them up in sudden warmth.

Briar tells him their deadname like they're dreaming. It doesn't suit them, but then - it's not theirs. Never ha been. Never will be again.

"My cousin's use-name," Calico says, and stutters over the unknown of it all, "my cousin's use-name is-"

Pink hair and seaweed eyes, a flowing skirt over bare feet, waistcoat whirling about keir as ke spins and darts back, beckoning for Calico to follow.

He feels proud of keir, to have come with him, to have joined his family, despite everything. Despite him and Robyn and what they'd done.

What he'd done.

He adored keir. He'd set the worlds alight for keir.

(He gave up his name when ke asked, gave up his memories when told, gave up - gave up - gave up-)

"Tayse," Calico says, the name sharp on his tongue like a broken key.

He'd drop to his knees under the weight of the memories (the guilt) but Briar has hold of him.

They've stepped closer, hand still clasped in his, and have him against their side, arm looped around their waist.

"Are you alright?" they ask. "Did that - work?"

"Briar suits you far better," Calico says. "I think it did."

"Your cousin is Tayse. Do you... know what happened to keir?"

"Not entirely." Calico pushes himself upright. "But I'm going to find out." He feels more - settled than he has in a long time. More power at his fingers (on his tongue) but more control, too.

thought i had during exams today:

New Perspective by Panic! At the Disco should’ve been written for The Days (specifically as a song for Cooper), instead of for Jennifer’s Body

Adolescencia

La dulce adolescencia del plano secuencia

Por mgarsos.

Es la serie del momento, este thriller policial cargado de drama psicológico, ha conseguido que casi todo el mundo hable de el; ya sea por el poliédrico tema que propone o por su complejidad técnica. Pero haciendo honor a su título, en su proceso de revelarse contra lo que acostumbramos a ver, también comete errores.

El principal problema, es que en pro de la técnica descuida su historia. Quizá también influya querer comprimir un tema tan complejo en solo cuatro capítulos. Pero la realidad, es que la historia tiene agujeros narrativos y le falta ahondar para conseguir un cierre mucho más redondo.

El guion se desenvuelve bien, es coherente y acorde a la acción tanto narrativa como técnica.

A nivel actoral es sublime. Owen Cooper, pese a ser novel, nos regala a un Jamie, propio de un actor con experiencia. Stephen Graham también se muestra soberbio, complementado por Christine Tremarco y una prometedora Amélie Peace. Erin Doherty nos deja una de las escenas más completas de la serie. Caben menciones especiales para Faye Marsay, Ashley Walters y Mark Stanley.

No podemos negar que es una proeza a nivel técnico, pero no tanto a nivel visual. Su plano secuencia, nos ayuda a introducirnos en la historia y le aporta naturalidad, pero en ocasiones echamos de menos otro tipo de planos que añadan valor narrativo. Su diseño de producción es correcto pero nada reseñable.

En cuanto al sonido tiene una mezcla interesante.

En resumen, esta miniserie nos ofrece poder reflexionar sobre diferentes y complejos temas de actualidad, con un envoltorio visual poco común que nos enamora gracias a su técnica. Pero le falta recorrido narrativo para superar su propia adolescencia y alcanzar la perfección de su madurez.

Adolescence (prods. Jack Thorne & Stephen Graham).

Netflix's shocking four-part limited series, where each episode is shot in a single, continuous long take (no stitching or cheating), portrays a haunting portrait of the aftermath of teenage violence. Its real-time dramatization upends and sublimates our expectations for a police procedural case that delves into the unexpected trauma of child incel radicalization and bullying leading to murder. Through gossip, social media, and toxic "manosphere" internet culture, it tries to answer why children and teenagers feel so low while their young minds are being poisoned with our adult problems online.
